Today we’re discussing a topic close to my heart: are boneless chicken wings still “wings”? I am of the strong opinion that they are not. What do you think?

I want to express my sincere condolences to Eric Dane’s family and loved ones.

ALS is one of the most difficult diagnoses we deliver in neurology and neurosurgery. Not because we don’t understand the disease — but because, even today, our ability to change its course remains limited.

What many people don’t realize is that ALS is a clinical diagnosis supported by EMG findings. MRI is often performed not to “see ALS,” but to rule out other structural causes of weakness such as cervical spine disease or brain lesions.

In my experience, one of the most important red flags is progressive weakness without sensory loss. When weakness advances but numbness is absent, that changes the diagnostic thinking significantly.

Another critical point: early referral matters. The sooner a patient is evaluated by a neurologist experienced in motor neuron disease, the sooner multidisciplinary care can begin — respiratory monitoring, nutritional support, mobility planning. These interventions do not cure ALS, but they improve quality and length of life.

We have medications such as riluzole and edaravone that may modestly slow progression, and research is ongoing in gene-targeted and cellular therapies. There is movement in the field — even if progress feels slow.

To his family: my deepest condolences.

Neurodegenerative disease reminds us how much work we still have to do.

Mary and I recently took the kids to the Bahamas. With the long commutes and long workdays, this was the perfect reset. I returned refreshed, relaxed, and ready to get back to it. Let’s go!

Some medications are incredibly helpful and widely used for very real medical reasons. Many of them improve quality of life. Some save lives.

At the same time, research has shown that certain drug classes, especially with long-term or repeated use, may be associated with subtle changes in cognition and brain function. Studies have explored links to memory changes, slower processing speed, shifts in neurotransmitter balance, and, in some cases, structural differences seen on imaging.

This doesn’t mean these medications are “bad.” It doesn’t mean they shouldn’t be used. Medicine is always about balance, context, and individual circumstances.

What it does mean is that the brain is not isolated from the treatments we use. It responds. It adapts. And over time, cumulative exposure can matter.

Conversations like this are about understanding that brain health is complex and influenced by many factors, including the medications people take over years, not just weeks.

Awareness is part of responsible, thoughtful healthcare.

Best seat on the plane!

A neurosurgical day doesn’t start in the operating room. It starts in the quiet hours — building stamina, clarity, and focus long before the first patient walks through the door.

Every case carries responsibility. Every conversation requires honesty. Every decision affects someone’s quality of life.

From early mornings to late evenings, it’s not just about operating — it’s about preparation, precision, and presence. Reviewing imaging. Discussing risks. Managing expectations. Checking on patients after surgery. Making sure they’re truly okay.

I don’t take lightly the trust my patients place in me.

At the end of the day, what stays with me isn’t the number of cases. It’s the people. The relief in their voice. The progress. The small wins that change someone’s daily life.

This is more than a schedule.
It’s a commitment.

As a neurosurgeon, having a strong, collaborative OR team is crucial to performing safe, successful surgery. The most important factor of a strong OR team is communication. From communication from my office to the anesthesia team, c-arm techs, scrubs and more, communication is the key.
